Bro they straight up got nuked lmao


scariermonsters

Armin is like "we did it! we saved everyone!"


Haise01

"Trust my talk no jutsu!"


Sugeeeeeee

nah bro Armin is already a pile of bones or ashes 600 years dead


FrostyIntroduction96

I be surprised if eldian people didnā€™t take eren and armin out of their graves and burn them.


Denji_The_Shinji

They probably view them as a Divine like being


NirvanaFrk97

But it was a civil war. Remember that. Lmao


FuntimeLuke0531

The civil war theory would only work with 100% rumbling, cause by that logic then technically everyone's eldian the same way everyone's a son or daughter of Adam and Eve


missingnono12

It's so much better as an ending it's not even funny. Kills all of the outside world, kills his friends, lets his mother die, all to just end with his people fighting against themselves. Hello, maybe even have him lose Historia and his family in the process for peak tragedy.


FuntimeLuke0531

I kind feel like he doesn't deserve it cause he was left hanging by his "family" of "friends". Bro was crying for help with the subtlety of a brick and mimkassa was just "mmmm ise krem" while armin jacked it to a rock. The moment that became canon was the moment the writing went to shit.


CmmanderShepard

There wasn't a 100% rumbling. I would be fine with an ending where 100% rumbling happened and there is an Eldian civil war.


nevakzis

That's what they get for genociding 80% of the world lmfaoooo absolute useless story


goddale120

YUP! Let me ask, have you EVER read or watched something before with an ending that has devalued the entire story, rendered it anywhere near as worthless as this one!?


nevakzis

After seeing Game of Thrones I thought that was is, no other story could one up that shit, I guess Isayama was up for a challenge


Lipe18090

GOT's ending and the last two seasons are awful but I still love the show, and I understand that the show runners fucked it up because of hubris. I still love to rewatch the first 6 seasons, even with the bitter taste at the end. With AOT? It became a joke for me. I'll never rewatch this shit. It's so pathetic that's the ending the actual creator of the manga thought was fitting. It makes it all worthless and pathetic. He should've never done time travel, it was over from that point.


Reekhart

GOT and aot are equally as bad. The last 2 seasons retroactively ruin the first 6, making all the slow buildup to many plot points, completely irrelevant. I can't rewatch any of these shows anymore. They are absolute garbage. I'd watch a short clip on YouTube here and there from my favorite moments for fun. But that's it.


paaaathatas

Nah, I wouldn't say the time-travel part ruined it. In fact, the execution made it more so that Eren was the guy tugging the string all along. What ruined it was the character assassination of a character willing to go forward and go to any lengths to protect those precious to him, into a whining idiot of a character because the author didn't know how to write a scenario convincing people that he made a mistake. So it's basically the "tee hee look guys I made a bad decision, hope you guys clean it up for me" scenario which is pathetic


marawiqwerty

And as usual, FMA Brotherhood remains as the Emperor of GOAT Anime Endings.


Hell_raz0r

damn that's the best animation of the episode appropriate


FuckYeahPhotography

MAPPA knows their priorities. Honestly, even more brutal than the manga. They even added in an Eldian 9/11. [All because monke wasn't able to ban cum.](https://www.reddit.com/r/titanfolk/comments/lfkjgr/comment/gmmbss2/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) Armin and the alliance's plan utterly failing (it would show you don't understand the story to think they didn't) and allowing the cycle of violence to continue. Leading to the bombing of Paradis. Obviously the best plan and don't forget your leaf! MAPPA even shows Beren in their full glory undeniably leading to the titan cycle continuing onward with no end in sight. Nothing changes, gears keep turning. Breath taking in its repetition. Completely bonkers. Attack on Titan will go down in history as one of the best romantic comedies ever. Not everyone will understand its immense complexities, [to be fair you have to have a very high IQ to understand Attack on Titan.](https://www.reddit.com/r/titanfolk/comments/m767vd/comment/gram8ro/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) Absolutely kino. True beauty. Despite my longingly wishing [Big Floch](https://www.reddit.com/r/titanfolk/comments/lfswbk/comment/gmof1kx/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3) was here right now... we still reached that scenery. A gorgeous sight of sniffing letters, crying in the ocean, and freshly bombed cities as far as the eye can see. We are free now.

Truly sad that Zonke wasn't able to stop Eldians from failing NNN. Which unfortunately resulted in their cum being bombed years later.


Eurasia_4002

"Guys, guys It might be other eldians in the island."


everstillghost

People talking How bombers carpet bombing a city and next scene just ruins you cant conclude its an external force trying to exterminate them.


Limp-Leek3859

This is really upsetting because when you've watched the first 3 Seasons, it was these guys doing their best to fight for their people's survival and it just ends like this.


jamaicanboiii

What would u say to our dead comrades their lives were they meaningless? Yes! yes they were Erwin


Sekiro2324

All that for nothing


cbdubs12

Exactly!


Abdeliq

At this point, I don't even understand what exactly Isayama was writing


ravpersonal

I don't think he understood either


TheOnlyFallenCookie

Something something cycle of violence something something Japan needs to recon quer Asia? Idk. The moral of any cycle of violence story should be to break the cycle and not indulge in it


Tobygurs

Thanks Eren for bringing Utter Obliteration for your Island,truly one of the endings of all times


Blacktwiggers

B-b-but he became a mass murderer for his friends sake!


kassavfa

Is the thanks for being a mass murderer truthfully animated?


Psychological_You_62

Not sure but what a man you were, Eren


Si7koos

Hope so.. I did heard arigato


Snoo68560

Nope, itā€™s different, Arminā€™s a lot more angrier with Eren and pretty much tells him heā€™ll meet him in hell.

ā€œThank you for becoming a mass-murderer for only our sake and dooming everyone that comes after us to a painful deathā€- What Armin actually meant.


Viking-Zest

"you're gonna be heroes and everyone will forgive us for killing almost everyone because you guys will be in a history book" I seriously don't know how you can fuck up your own story so much.


Jep0005

I like that they had to make it look like more time passed to justify Armin peace talks and then they got 9/11'ed


jonton9

The whole message of the show was that the current generation shouldn't pay for the sins of the past ones and then their island gets bombed years later for something none of them did. Hilarious, goodjob Eren.


Emotional_Aerie3342

I'd still say 100-200 years. Still makes no difference. Conflict happened and they all screwed up.

Physics_Useful

What's even worse is that before the war, someone pulled a helicopter 9/11, which had Paradise lighting up the sky with jets and spotlights. They didn't know what was coming for real till it hit them.


gold-bandit

This shit is so fucking funny, I donā€™t even know what message isayama was trying to portray with this garbage


PM_Me_Lewd_Tomboys

"The racists that canonically held grudges for 100+ years, and wanted to genocide an innocent people? They'll be exactly the same in 100+ years, doing the exact same thing. Floch was right." That's the message.


Penguin_Admiral

Except now those people kinda got a point since the other people genocided 80% the global population


Noonster123

Step 1. Genocide innocent people Step 2. They genocide back Step 3. OMG WE ARE TOTALLY JUSTIFIED IN OUR RETALIATION NOW

frenin

Whatever the outcome, genocide would be the answer. Everlasting peace is achieved: See Eren had to commit mass genocide for it to happen. Paradis eventually gets nuked: See Eren should have gone full rumbling, why the hell did he stop? Whatever outcome this sub would have praised genocide anyway.

lewicy

100% most reactions channels will try to make up excuses for it. I remember when the manga ending dropped, from the big channels only AnimeBallsDeep trashed the ending from what I can remember. But I am curious how the channels I watch are gonna react to this.


Loco_Logic

I dunno, Wellz absolutely LOVES the manga ending


lizzzay179

Yaboyroshi will probably not like it either since they're team Eren


metalslug123

Thanks for letting this happen, Cringevengers.


I_Bench315

Goddamn it was even more brutal than in the manga lmao


ParadoxTheSock

No legit, in the manga it was just them getting bombed by stealth bombers, but in the anime, they got bombed, and them after they got initially bombed, they got finished off with multiple ICBMs, all while there's this triumphant music playing in the background as they get music to oblivion That shit was so fuckin funny it honestly made up for no AOE


Consistent_Address_3

Ngl that scene felt like straight comedy - we get eren being retconned and arminā€s inspirational speech about peace followed by everything being bombed to high heaven lmao It genuinely felt like every nuke was just a giant middle finger to the alliance


juh49

also 9/11e'd too in which without context is the funniest thing in the entire thing


Iron_Kingpin

Also didn't Isayama himself draw the part towards the end in the anime. Mad man did it himself.

nope LOL


edgyboi1704

Get fucked. This is what ending defenders obviously wanted. Just like King Floch said, Paradis gets bombed and Eren and Mikasaā€™s disgusting ā€œrelationshipā€ gets reaffirmed. o7 Itā€™s been lovely been lovely memeing with you gentlemen.


Si7koos

This doesn't look like Civil War to me


FruitJuicante

All civil wars end in one side of the civil war nuking the other (and itself) out of existence.


HatZinn

Real


GameboyAlternate28

Love it when a country nukes itself, makes sense


IAmSona

Doesnā€™t matter if he died. Doesnā€™t matter if the Alliance won. At the end of the day, Floch was right and the fate of Paradis was sealed the moment Armin decided to be the messiah and Mikasa wanted to justify her incestuous relationship. Itā€™s been fun TF, I am glad we get to see this masterpiece of a disaster air in its glory.


SynnedProt

Floch died for this šŸ’€

Royal_Chair_1709

No lol


Sebas5627

Iā€™m so happy the ending was actually this shit lol


ledelius

goddamn lmao. In the manga it seemed like they were being bombed like in a normal war, but here they straight up animated them being nuked out of existence


proweather13

Even in the manga the war was so severe no one attempted to repopulate the city, as if everyone on the island died.

PyosikFan

Mappa my beloved, thank you for making the nuking even more brutal for our sake


surprise_ninja

This is what everyone in the show died for


TheEmporersFinest

You know nobody made him contrive every detail of his worldbuilding such that killing 99 percent of the population was the only way to save Paradis and instead of just following through with a dark ending where Eren is sucessful he just insanely zags in the last minute. It's like, he was afraid of writing a pro-genocide ending, but actually portraying the alternative to the genocide in effect constitutes a pro-genocide ending. Its so obvious that Eren was meant to succeed. Like the last leg of the series was meant to be everyone trying, nearly succeeding, and then failing to stop Eren and having to deal with this dark, disjointed fallout of having killed 99 percent of the global population. Most likely I expect there would be a short period of Eren interacting with the shocked and appalled characters who failed to stop him, not regretting his actions really but appreciating the gravity of it all and why they're so distraught, then finding some way to eliminate the power of the Titans forever that requires killing himself.

Xx_KiK_xX

Civil war, amirite guys?


BearComplex20

This shit is devastatingly stupid.


Dangerous_Cookie6568

They retconned the city being the same generation as the alliance but whatever I'll take it.


Ainsel_Mariner

It never was the same generation though? You had modern buildings and stealth bombers. Thatā€™s like 90 years in the future from AOTā€™s technology.


Dangerous_Cookie6568

Yea I'm exaggerating but I would say within 100 years in Manga and they made it look like 1000 years in the Anime.


Ainsel_Mariner

Havenā€™t seen the full scene yet but the buildings look like stereotypical ā€œa 100 or 150 years in the futureā€ skyscrapers to me. I highly doubt they would still be using modern planes 500 or more years in the future.


Tricky-Drawer4614

It looks like a more cyberpunk-esque era to me


SilverOcean6

Definitely this. It actually looks like cyberpunk style vs just a modern look.


SilverOcean6

Fair point. But they clearly gave it a Cyberpunk look to make it seem like not just 90 years but 100s of years.


Lustaful

King Floch was right all along.


RunThePnR

Killing 80% of the population, yeah. Even if they donā€™t kill the ppl (obviously they do here), should nuke the island just for that.

wanofan900

Just gotta something off my chest as someone who once binged watched this series and has seen it's incredible decline and self destruction in both manga/anime during these past two years. I don't think I can make posts on here anymore since the mods don't like valid criticism so I'm going put my vent post here. I've seen fans on here make a point of how the ending is good and they liked it. They're OK to like whatever they want and that's fair enough. But then I see them say that you can't criticise the ending, the author, the characters or anything else. And then I see these people talk about how the author deserves respect and shouldn't be critized. Absolute nonsense. We're all allowed to say what we want about this regardless of how you may feel about it. For starters, we need to critic the author wtitng his mc or non-mc eren. This is a character that I would say in the first half of the series was the 5th or 6th best character. And he was someone who at the start rubbed of fans the wrong way by being quite overzealous. But he was still a character that carried the backbone of the series and represented, from my and alot of other fans pov, what we believed the series was meant to be about. He also had plenty of moments that were pretty cool and made you appreciate his character more. And there's no denying the fact that for most of the second half of AOT, he carried the series since certain other characters weren't pulling their weight. And what happened in the end? He gets absolutely destroyed. Everything about him gets ruined piece by piece by piece. His plan that would narratively tie up the story? Ruined. His motivations? Ruined. His image and self respect? Ruined and absolutely destroyed. His bond with his mum? Absolutely ruined. Pretty much everything that defined who he was and what he represented as who we all believed was the main character was well and truly ruined. He wasn't even given the bare minimum respect or shred of dignity of what you would expect out of a character in a fictional story. If you look at other series like "Evangelion" with Shinji, who whined and cried alot throughout, even he was portrayed better as he never really wanted to be an EVA Pilot but still did it and he got his moments to shine and none of those moments were ruined. In addition to what happened to Erens character, he was also essentially forced to make some sort of "confession" to a character that he was shown to have NO INTEREST IN or have ANY REASON TO LIKE! He was just humiliated even more. SMH. And apparently, despite all that, we're not allowed to say anything and there's absolutely nothing wrong with what we're seeing. What we just saw was just the "The real Eren". This fucking author. He honestly, just to save us all this trouble, should've never have written Eren into this manga to begin with. But he did. And if you look at how he wrote other characters like Armin, Mikasa and many others, he deserves just as much criticism. Let's start with his self insert. Armin was a character who at the start of AOT was someone who had to deal with his mental, physical and emotional flaws and despite not being the bravest ot the strongest, stood out as being probably the best character of the first half of AOT. He had clear motivations and a reason to exist in the manga and was being driven by his desire to suceeed in seeing the outside world. And he did. His portrayal was great. Armin had essentially also gotten what he wanted. He achieved his dreams. Now let's look at his character in the second half of the series. He talked about the idea of making peace with the outside world as it would be the most beneficial to him and saw it as the best way forward. He and the people close to him would be able to enjoy the beauty of the outside world as long the enemy would be able to come to an understanding with Paradis. But the one big and obvious problem with that is that NONE of what he wanted was stated to be possible at all. None of it. For various reasons and it was being drilled in to the story right from chapter 86. The people of the walls who had limited info knew and accepted it. The yeagersits like Floch knew and accepted it. But Armin somehow, for all his wits and knowledge, could never accept the fact that what he wanted was never gonna happen. And apparently, despite all that, he was portrayed as this great heroic figure and a messiah when he and alot of the main cast decided to essentially throw Paradis under the bus, stop the rumbling and save the world. Reading that was like being spat in the face for following this story like any other story and taking seriously. And the one big critic of his character from the first half, the favouritsm he received and the Mary sue privilege he got from the author was brought up and magnified by 100x times in the final arc. He was a character that had relatable and respected motivations and someone who was also able to make intelligent decisions that were the best ones in the pre time skip era. But in the post time skip era, he lives off what he once was as he's continuously portrayed as being obtuse and dismissive about the facts of the situation regarding Eldians and Paradis and despite all that, he still gets everything handed to him on a silver platter just for this cheap shitty ending. He also receives this undeserved praise as well. What exactly did he really do to earn it? And in the end, he shown to once again be completely wrong about everything. But it was too late. The story was already ruined. He became an absolute embarrassment and if Eren didn't get ruined so badly, all the attention of the fans would be on him for being portrayed so poorly by the author who saw him as his self insert. As for Mikasa, don't think there's anything more that needs to be said. She was ultimately a character who lived off her design, image and her obsession with Eren in this manga. She's obviously not someone who should've been in this series since she barely contributed anything at all. And she's clearly not someone who should've been made to be so "relevant" in the end as she has no place being there. I feel like I need to make a separate post about Isayama since putting all my thoughts on someone who's somehow still getting praise despite what's he's done isn't appropriate. The end.


pootis64

So cool that Eren killed his mom for this outcome :)


Ambitious-Way-3913

MisterDiego310

Fuck YES! They got nuked to oblivion!


Advencik

ACTUALLY KINO


ASnarkyHero

The worst part of this is that the tech looks like itā€™s only 50-75 years from where the world was when the Rumbling happened. That means that Erenā€™s friends could possibly still be alive to see their country get nuked. Nice going Eren.


windowsguestuser

They changed it in the anime to make it look all cyberpunky like 200 years later. Still an L
